INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Basic use of the thermometer 


To use the Infrared (IR) sensor: Install the two LR44 batteries and aim the IR Thermometer at a surface to measure.  Press and hold down the trigger. The device will turn on automatically, and in less than 1 second, you will get a temperature reading displayed on the LCD screen. The temperature reading will update itself every half a second as long as you hold down the trigger. Let go of the trigger and the last reading will be displayed on the LCD screen for around 90 seconds. The device will turn itself off automatically if no button is pressed within 90 seconds.

Some additional info for more accurate measurements

Take into account the fact that the IR Sensor measures and displays the average temperature reading of the surface objects within a circular spot in front of it. The size of this circular spot increases in diameter by 1cm for every 1cm in distance the IR Thermometer is from the surface being measured. If you have two different temperature objects within this spot, you will get a reading of the average of all objects within the spot.
